Karmasutra is visual novel/RPG recently released by Top Hat Studios, Inc. The game adds some spice to the normal VN platform with D&D inspired RPG elements in the mix. You play as a character recently awoken in a heavenly realm known as Tittva. This will test you and push you too the limits as you and other sinners seek to pass this challenge and enter Nirvana

With a unique turn based combat system, you can fight or flee to decide your fate. However be careful, with the tendency to have you opponents clothes rip apart in almost every battle, your encounters could all become rather interesting. On steam the game comes with a free uncensored patch available in the workshop. Bucking the trend of other developers attempting to charge more money for such updates.

The Steam release for the visual novel by 5pb. and Nitroplus is on sale for today. For those unfamiliar, the synopsis for the story of Steins;Gate is below:

STEINS;GATE follows a rag-tag band of tech-savvy young students who discover the means of changing the past via mail, using a modified microwave. Their experiments into how far they can go with their discovery begin to spiral out of control as they become entangled in a conspiracy surrounding SERN, the organisation behind the Large Hadron Collider, and John Titor who claims to be from a dystopian future.

Interaction with the game takes place through the “phone trigger” system, where the player can receive calls and text messages and decide whether to reply to them or not, changing the outcome of the game’s plot.
